Updated: Ordered Chicken, Got Shellfish, Died

So reports Consumerist (itself linking to an AJC story). The customer, a Georgia rapper, ordered the Chicken Fresco but got the Chicken Oscar (relevant part of the Ruby Tuesday menu is here, but without pictures, so I don’t know how similar the items look). The case echoes the one where a cheese-allergic customer sued McDonald’s after receiving cheese when he emphatically ordered otherwise, and became ill.

Update: Ruby Tuesday claims that the customer in fact ordered Chicken Oscar. Seems a bit unlikely, given the lifelong and known allergy, but there you go.
